Funny actually, I had a high speed crash and got away with grazes/bruises then had a low speed crash in the woods and knackered my shoulder - nothing that won’t heal in time.
Downside of running road hydro, if anything goes wrong it costs. Really missed riding the bike though so totally worth it.
Forks are Bontrager wound up knock offs. Ride really well, just like the woundups on my road bike. I’m a big fan. I actually wanted a whisky fork but too much money, after running the straggler fork for a while it’s really livened up the ride.
@PhilDAS aye black all weather would be perfect but already own 3 slate ones.
Need to get some better photos but my cdf has had some subtle changes. Mainly the fork. I had a crash and then my left shifter failed so had to cough up for a new one, bike was out of action for a couple of months (found an oem shifter from Taiwan new on eBay for £105 posted, trade from madison it would have been over £200 with vat. Ridiculous.
Been doing a lot more riding this year working on getting some fitness again which is good, this bike absolutely flies - had been riding my road bike while this was out of action and have to say, 23c sucks for riding in Yorkshire. Not much will change aside from needs new bar tape soon and almost time for c&s again.
Also needs new bearings for rear hub, anyone have this model and know what cartridge size/code I need?
Was looking at some hope hoops but just don’t have the money, and in around 5000 miles the stock wheels have never let me down.
